2008 TOYOTA YARIS. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO UNUSUAL HEADLIGHT SYSTEM. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED ON, WITH THE HEADLIGHTS TURNED OFF, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL BRIGHTLY LIT UP. WHEN THE HEADLIGHTS WERE TURNED ON, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WENT DIM. THE CONSUMER STATED IT WAS BACKWARDS AND IT WAS OF POOR DESIGN. DURING DUSK, THE DRIVER NEEDED TO KNOW THE LIGHTS WERE ON, AND A DARK INSTRUMENT PANEL INDICATED THE HEADLIGHTS WERE NOT ON.

WHILE DRIVING MY 2009 TOYOTA YARIS, I WAS BURNED BY A HOT BEVERAGE WHEN THE DRIVER'S SIDE CUP HOLDER BECAME LOOSE AND CAUSED THE CUP TO BECOME UNSTABLE, SPILLING THE CONTENTS ON MYSELF AND CAR. THE CUP HOLDERS ARE LOCATED IN A POSITION THAT PUTS FRONT SEAT PASSENGERS AT RISK OF INJURY BECAUSE OF THEIR LOCATION. IN A COLLISION OR ABRUPT STOP, CONSUMERS ARE AT RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY. I AM ESPECIALLY CONCERNED FOR CHILDREN BECAUSE OF WHAT I EXPERIENCED. I HOPE TOYOTA WILL FIX THIS FLAW AND ELIMINATE THIS SAFETY HAZARD FOR CONSUMERS. I RECEIVED MEDICAL TREATMENT AND CONTACTED TOYOTA, YET THE PROBLEM HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED. I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN A HAPPY CUSTOMER WITH THE CAR UNTIL THIS INCIDENT. *TR
